Monica Sosa, LCSW

Monica Sosa is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New Mexico with eight years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, grief, trauma and related challenges. Her practice includes support for parenting concerns, family problems, substance use, and mood disorders.

She trained with a Bachelor of Family Studies and a Master of Social Work. Monica primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Client-Centered Therapy, and she brings other tools when they fit a person's needs. Sessions focus on practical skills, clearer thinking patterns, and concrete steps people can try between meetings.

Monica also draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), mindfulness methods, and motivational interviewing when appropriate. That range helps with anger, post-traumatic stress, impulsivity, and persistent mood problems. She describes behavior changes and skill practice as central parts of the work.

For parents, Monica uses positive parenting and attachment-informed ideas to change everyday interactions and reduce conflict. She helps parents try small changes that can shift how a child responds and how family tension feels.

Her style is down-to-earth and respectful. Monica talks through patterns, teaches coping techniques, and helps people plan what to try next. If someone is ready to take a step toward managing anger or other struggles, she guides practical next steps.
